Roman Reigns, known for his time as a WWE superstar, has secured a Hollywood role in The Pickup movie, featuring an all-star cast. The film, set to debut on Prime Video on August 6, 2025, continues Reigns’ journey from wrestling into acting.
The Pickup brings together Eddie Murphy, Pete Davidson, and Keke Palmer in a story about two armored truck drivers, Russell and Travis, whose normal workday spirals out of control after an ambush by a criminal group led by Zoe. This action-comedy promises unpredictable twists, dangerous situations, and strong chemistry among its leads, setting the stage for high entertainment value.
Reigns reportedly completed his filming for the movie last year, dedicating an entire day to shooting his scenes. While details about his character have not yet been shared, this role further strengthens his Hollywood credentials. His previous appearances in Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw and the Netflix comedy The Wrong Missy have shown his ability to transition from the wrestling ring to the big screen with ease. In addition, he is rumored to be in discussions for a part in Legendary’s anticipated live-action adaptation of Street Fighter.
Despite having a limited WWE schedule, Roman Reigns’ continued work with notable names like Eddie Murphy and promising talents such as Pete Davidson and Keke Palmer demonstrates his growing influence in mainstream entertainment. As his film career develops, fans and industry watchers are eager to see how Reigns balances his WWE appearances with his Hollywood ambitions.
Promotional material for The Pickup, including the official movie poster, is now available. Updates on Roman Reigns’ Hollywood projects and news about his WWE return are expected to follow in the coming months.
